                     THACKERAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           September 30, 1995 and 1994

                                   (UNAUDITED)


     1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the
     preparation of these unaudited interim financial statements
     are consistent with the accounting policies followed in the audited
     annual financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
     adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
     necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

     As a result of the sale of Atlantic Hardware & Supply Corporation
     ("Atlantic"), as more fully described in Note 2 below, the Company's
     operations are now comprised exclusively of managing its real estate
     investments and mortgage loans.  Accordingly,  the Company has elected
     to prepare an unclassified balance sheet as of September 30, 1995 for
     its continuing operations.  In addition, the accompanying statements
     of operations for the nine month and three month periods then ended
     reflect the activities of such continuing operations.  All prior
     period financial information presented has been reclassified for
     purposes of comparability.

     Certain information and footnote disclosures included in the annual
     audited financial statements have been omitted.  For additional
     information, reference is made to the financial  statements and notes
     thereto included in the Company's Annual  Report to Stockholders for
     the year ended December 31, 1994.

     The net income (loss) applicable to common stock from continuing
     operations and from discontinued operations for the nine month and
     three month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 were divided by
     the number of shares outstanding during the periods to determine per
     share data.

     2.   SALE OF BUSINESSES

     On May 19, 1995, Brennand Paige Industries, Inc. ("BPI"), a direct
     subsidiary of the Company, sold all of the outstanding capital stock
     of Atlantic, BPI's wholly owned subsidiary, for

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   (CONTINUED)

                           September 30, 1995 and 1994

                                   (UNAUDITED)

     $3,854,000 in cash.  The Company and the buyer of Atlantic ("Buyer"),
     each have investments in two entities, Monroc Inc. and Sals Investors,
     L.P.  The purchase price was negotiated at arms  length between the
     respective managements of the Company and the Buyer.  Proceeds from
     the sale in the amount of $450,000 were used to repay advances
     previously made by Atlantic to the Company.  The remainder of the
     proceeds will be used for working capital purposes of the Company.

     The operating results of Atlantic are reflected in the accompanying
     consolidated statements of operations for the nine month and three
     month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 as income (losses)
     from discontinued operation.  Net sales of Atlantic from January 1,
     1995 through May 19, 1995 were $6,509,000, and for the nine month
     period ended September 30,  1994 were $12,461,000. Net assets of
     Atlantic as of May 19, 1995 were $4,949,000.

     3.   INCOME TAXES

     The Company anticipates it will generate a Federal taxable loss for
     the year ended December 31, 1995, and therefore it expects that no
     Federal income taxes will be payable for the year ending December 31,
     1995.  In addition, for the year ended December 31, 1994, net
     operating loss carryforwards were in excess of  federal taxable
     income.  Accordingly, Federal income tax provisions (credits) for the
     nine month and three month periods ended September 30, 1994, have been
     eliminated through the utilization of such loss carryforwards in the
     accompanying Consolidated  Statements of Operations.

     4.   STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS

     Interest payments from continuing operations for each of the nine
     months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 amounted to $5,000.

     The were no income tax payments from continuing operations, during the
     nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994.

     Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
               -------------------------------------------------
     Condition and Results of Operations
     -----------------------------------


     (1)  Material Changes in Financial Condition
     --------------------------------------------
          The Company believes that proceeds from the sale of Atlantic,
     will be sufficient to fund its cash requirements for the foreseeable
     future.

          At September 30, 1995 the Company had no material commitments for
     capital expenditures.

          In October 1995, the Company terminated its contract for sale of
     90.9 acres in Dade County, Florida because of the potential buyer's
     failure to obtain the regulatory approvals necessary for its intended
     project within the contractually stipulated time period.

     (2)  Material Changes in Results of Operations
          -----------------------------------------
          Total real estate revenues for the nine months ended September
     30, 1995 were $61,000 versus $453,000 for the comparable period in
     1994.  The 1994 period included a real estate sale in the amount of
     $330,000, as well as other revenues of $50,000, resulting from a
     forfeited real estate deposit.

          Property carrying costs for the first nine months of 1995 were
     $22,000 or 9.0% lower than the amount incurred for 1994.  The decrease
     is largely due to a reduction in professional fees relating to the
     real estate properties.

          General and administrative expenses decreased by $39,000 or 10.7%
     from amounts incurred in the first nine months of 1994.  The decrease
     was primarily in professional costs.
